Slowing down a little today.

Current: Mostly CloudyWind: SE at 6 mphHumidity: 86%

Yesterday I worked in the rain removing debris from falling alder trees the day before. I was caber tossing logs halfway up the hill while piling debris branches. The soil is very muddy and squishy on the hillside so I wound up straining both left ankle and right knee. As all people live off the land know this cannot stop me, and later today I will be moving more up hill so it can be split and stacked. Other scrap wood is being used in swales and for biochar.
